Honor to the team

I want to take a moment and honor some people to whom honor is due. First to my family, my daughter Amy for rescuing Luke from the pool and Daniel for beginning to extract the water. To Jim "the guardian angel" for performing CPR. To the paramedics that grabbed Luke and ran. To the ER doctors and nurses for reviving my son. To the pediatric intensive care doctors and nurses for all they have done to give Luke the best care in the world. To all of you THANK YOU for your part in saving my son's life, I am forever indebted to each of you.

Some would say that healing is all about just praying and trusting in God for healing. Others will say it is just about the quality of medical care. I have a bit of different perspective, and it is this, that when a person gets the quality care in a loving atmosphere and combine that with thousands of people praying you get incredible healing. Thank you to those that are praying and to those that are ministering to Luke's needs in the physical.

Just a note, I intend to maintain this site for as long as is needed to share the progress of my son. I find by typing it is healing to my own heart, and I hope you find encouragement from this site.

Gordy, Sue and family - our hearts, thoughts and prayers have been with you all since the minute Cindy called me! We check the site regularly for updates on Luke, so Gordy, keep it up. It makes us all feel better knowing how Luke is healing, and it does give us encouragement. Thank you for the pictures of Luke too, all our friends now know who their prayers are helping and I liked seeing his smiley face! Love you all.

I too want to say thank-you to everyone who was a part in helping my precious baby. God gives life and He uses others as instruments, too. It has been a blessing to see some of you who were a part in helping in the very beginning of the miracle of life coming back to him. Coming into the room touching him, seeing him and hearing the love in your voice and joy at seeing him alive.
And the others who called to see how he’s doing. My heart is so full of happiness, that thank- you doesn’t do it justice. May the Lord who is abundant mercy and grace pour out on you His love so greatly that it can be felt by you. He quiets us in His love. Aunt Cindy (-:

“The Lord your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you in His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing”
Zephaniah 3:17
